“A beautifully acted triumph”

Daily Telegraph

Two charismatic and powerful leaders are drawn together. Rome will do everything in its power to tear them apart or crush them both.

Caught between desire and duty their affair will shake the foundations of the known world. Power politics and passion collide in Shakespeare's captivating tragedy.

RSC Artistic Director Michael Boyd and the Ensemble re-visit their 2010 production on a bare stage in the intimate setting of the Swan Theatre. A bold and simple remix, these performances offer company and audience alike an opportunity to explore this great, complext tragedy in a fresh light.

We offer workshops and events for students and free resources for teachers to support this production.
